WHO recommends Covid boosters for old and vulnerable groups.
NEW DELHI: The World Health Organization (WHO) has urged booster immunisation for the elderly and other vulnerable groups following a recent increase in Covid-19 cases in a number of nations. This week's updated advice was provided following a meeting of the WHO's Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE). In order to account for the effects of Omicron and the strong population-level immunity brought on by infection and vaccination, it changed the roadmap for prioritising the use of Covid vaccinations. The updated roadmap re-emphasizes the importance of vaccination of those still at-risk of severe disease, mostly older adults and those with underlying conditions, including with additional boosters, said SAGE Chair Dr. Hanna Nohynek in a statement. Updated to reflect that much of the population is either vaccinated or previously infected with Covid, or both. The updated roadmap lists three Covid vaccine priority-use groups: high, medium, and low. These priority groups take into account vaccination performance, cost-effectiveness, programmatic variables, and community acceptance. They are primarily based on risk of serious illness and death. People with immunocompromising conditions, such as those living with HIV and transplant recipients, older adults, younger adults with significant comorbidities (such as diabetes and heart disease), children aged six months and older, pregnant women, and frontline healthcare workers are included in the high priority group. SAGE advises an additional booster for the high priority group six or twelve months after the final dosage, depending on factors including age and immunocompromising diseases. The WHO also made the important statement that all Covid vaccination recommendations are temporary and should only be used for the current epidemiological situation. According to the international health organisation, the recommendations for the additional booster should not be viewed as requiring continuous annual Covid vaccine boosters. Countries should take into account their unique environment when determining whether to continue immunising low risk individuals, such healthy children and adolescents, without jeopardising the routine immunisations that are so important for the health and wellbeing of this age group, Nohynek added. As per data from the Union health ministry, 2,994 new Covid infections were reported in India on Saturday, bringing the total number of active cases to 16,354. With nine deaths, the death toll rose to 5,30,876; two deaths each came from Delhi, Karnataka, and Punjab; one death came from Gujarat; and two deaths were resolved by Kerala.

Revised toll on Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway rolled back in poll-bound Karnataka
Following public outrage in the poll-bound Karnataka, the implementation of a revised toll fee hike on the newly inaugurated Mysuru-Bengaluru expressway has been rolled back. The decision was taken to increase the charges just three weeks after the highway was opened to the public. The news of a 22-23% toll fee hike came as a shock to many commuters, which was to be effective from April 1. BJP MP Pratap Simha requested Centre and Nitin Gadkari to roll back the new charges as it would be a burden to the people using the highway. After the rollback, he thanked the Centre. Commuters were already complaining about the charges for the 'incomplete' road and the revised charges made them furious.

Mukund and Vishnu warded off seven break points in the match while they converted two opportunities to break their opponents to ease their way to the title. First of all, I am very happy to return to Mysore Tennis Club. I was here as a 12-year-old and I was also the winner of the first International tournament here in 2012. Now, I am very happy to win the doubles title, so I think I partially defended my title, said Vishnu Vardhan after the match. This is my first title post-Covid and thanks a lot to Mukund for helping me with that. It was fun sharing the court with him and thanks to Mukund's mom for supporting us off the court. It is always fun to play against Niki and Ritvick, who had beaten me in the last three ITF events, so I could get my revenge this week, he added.Both Niki and Ritvick are very hard-working players and I wish both of you reach higher stages soon. And Vishnu, I have seen him for several years now and he gives 100 per cent all the time and treats all the matches with the same importance. A little story now, when I came here with my mom in 2012 I was reconsidering playing tennis professionally and from that point to be in the Grand Slam ranking and India No 1, it has been a remarkable journey. During the pandemic, my life hit the rock bottom again but I was decided that irrespective of how this week had gone, this will be a new start to an unforgettable journey this year and I hope to return here soon but hopefully you will see me in bigger tournaments, said Mukund after the final match. It was the second match of the day for Mukund and Vishnu and they showed great powers of concentration to stay focused on the task. They also won more than 80 per cent of points on both first and second serves, indicating the consistency in their game.

Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway toll hike put on hold after criticism
Infrastructure The toll charges on the newly built road were set to increase by 22% within a fortnight of the road being opened to the public. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) on Saturday, April 1 decided to hold the decision to raise toll charges on the Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway by 22 per cent. The decision was made amid heavy criticism that toll charges on the expressway were raised within a fortnight of the road opening for traffic. The NHAI had decided to raise the toll charges on the newly opened expressway from Rs 135 to Rs 165 for cars, jeeps, and vans for a single journey from April 1. For a round trip, the charges were increased from Rs 205 to Rs 250. Toll charges for other vehicle categories were also increased with the journey for light commercial vehicles and mini buses increasing from Rs 220 to Rs 270. The amount was increased to Rs 565 for buses and trucks. However, following opposition from motorists about the steep toll charges, the NHAI reversed its decision on Saturday morning, moments after the collection of revised fares had begun. Mysuru MP Pratap Simha confirmed that the toll price hike in the expressway was put on hold. The MP's statement came a day after a video of him justifying the hike in toll price was shared on his social media accounts on Friday. - . . https://t.co/mujHAtcEh9 Pratap Simha (@mepratap) April 1, 2023 NHAI officials had earlier stated that toll prices are revised annually taking inflation into account, and this hike is not exclusive to the Mysuru-Bengaluru expressway but is implemented on other roads as well. However, social media was flooded with complaints from motorists who bemoaned the steep charges on the Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway within two weeks of it being inaugurated. The project, inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 12, aims to reduce travel time between Bengaluru and Mysuru from three hours to approximately 75 minutes. The expressway was built at a cost of Rs 8,408 crore in two phases, with 52 kilometers being greenfield consisting of five bypasses that will reduce traffic congestion in neighboring towns.

Bengaluru residents miffed after FIR over silent march to save Sankey Road trees
Protest Those booked say they were not informed about the FIR and that it only came to light when the police issued a notice on March 17. Ians Bengaluru police have booked 70 residents who participated in a silent march campaigning to save trees and voice their opposition to the construction of a flyover along Sankey road in the heart of the city. The move was condemned by activists and civil society groups in the city. The silent march was held on February 19 following which police booked 70 people who took part in the march. The police case came to light when one of the participants, activist Avijit Michael, who works with the campaigning organisation Jhatkaa, was issued a notice on March 17 accusing him of violations including unlawful assembly, obstruction of public way and wrongful confinement. Denying the police charges, Avijit said that he was part of a peaceful march to save trees along the Sankey Road. It is my constitutionally guaranteed right to peaceful protest in India, the Mother of Democracies and nation of Mahatma Gandhiji, the stalwart of ahimsa and peaceful protest. I do not accept any of the charges laid out against me, as they have no merit, Avijit said. A representative of Jhatkaa pointed to videos taken during the silent march and said that it contradicted the police's claims. The video shows that none of the conditions of the IPC sections that Mr. Michael is charged with are fulfilled. There was no obstruction of public way, no unlawful assembly, nor was anyone wrongfully confined. Michael and the other citizens were peacefully marching along the footpath of Sankey road and raising awareness about the need to save trees, a statement from Jhatkaa read. Others booked by the police for the silent march include Kimsuka Iyer, a management professional and activist from Malleshwaram, and Rajeev Gowda, a former Rajya Sabha MP from the Congress party.

Karnataka polls deal a blowto BBMP, BWSSB revenue collection
From the BBMP revenue department alone, 800 staffers from the accounts and other sections are on election duty. BENGALURU:With the election code of conduct in place in Karnataka, officials of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) and Bengaluru Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) worry that the revenue collection mechanism is likely to take a hit in April and May, as officials are on election duty and in the coming days, more will be deployed for the same work. A senior official from the BBMP revenue department said all their staffers have been deputed on election duty for the past few days, and as a result, the revenue collection target may see fluctuations. The code of conduct came into effect on March 29, however, some officials were on election duty even before that. From the BBMP revenue department alone, 800 staffers from the accounts and other sections are on election duty. This will hamper revenue collection and targets, the official said. The Palike collected Rs 3,758 crore in property tax in the year 2022, and was hoping to make an additional Rs 800 crore collection by converting B-Khata sites to A-Khata, as per the Karnataka Land Revenue Act and Country and Town Planning Act. This apart, through its One Time Settlement Scheme for property tax, and arrears from central and state government undertakings, the Palike hoped to get Rs 200 crore. However, as the entire revenue collection team is now on election duty, proper revenue collection will begin only after election results on May 13, the official added. Corroborating this, BWSSB engineer-in-chief Suresh said that 600 officials from the engineering division, comprising assistant executive engineers, assistant engineers and junior engineers have been deployed on election duty. In the coming days, 200 meter readers will also be roped into poll work. There will be some impact when officials are under pressure, however, once elections get over, normal activities will resume, said Suresh. ANY PARTY, CANDIDATES SEEKING VOTER INFO WILL BE BOOKED: CHIEF With reports of political workers, aspiring candidates and their supporters trying to seek voter information doing the rounds, BBMP Chief Commissioner and District Election Officer Tushar Girinath has said that if the matter comes to his notice, FIRs will be filed. Addressing a press conference on Friday, he informed that about confusion over civic work taking a blow, he clarified that the Storm Water Drain (SWD) department has been given complete exemption from election-related work. KAS officers have been appointed as nodal officers and returning officers, and they will take care of all the Model Code of Conduct and election-related work, mentioned Girinath.

Covid cases hit 1,000mark again, fear spreadsin Karnataka
Doctors say number of people consulting them for small ailments for fear of being infected with Covid has risen BENGALURU:Active Covid cases in Karnataka crossed the 1,000 mark after almost 12 weeks. The rise in Covid, H3N2, H1N1 (Swine Flu) cases since January has created a sense of fear among citizens, who are reaching out to doctors for every little health issue they face.Health experts said the situation could have been controlled if continuous awareness was created by the government regarding the infection, symptoms and precautions to be taken, and people would not have so many fears. Dr Sylvia Karpagam, a public health doctor, said that precautionary measures are usually taken when the infection rate has already increased. If it is done in the beginning, people will be more aware and take necessary precautionary measures. The government usually becomes active when cases have already increased, which defeats the purpose, she said. Doctors said the number of people consulting them for small ailments like headaches, gastrointestinal issues or slight fever, for fear of being infected with Covid or other Influenza-Like Infections (ILI), has risen lately. Health and Family Welfare Commissioner D Randeep said the trend in Karnataka is seen to be in tandem with cases across India. The next XBB 1.16 variant is detected in large numbers. Patients who need hospitalisation has also increased, but the number of terminal cases needing ventilator beds has not yet risen. He said the department is being watchful about the Covid situation, to ensure it does not spiral, especially with the upcoming state assembly elections. Masks are not expected to be made mandatory as of now, however, officials have advised people to ensure they follow Covid Appropriate Behaviour (CAB). One of the major reasons the number of cases is on the rise is peoples negligence in using masks and maintaining social distance.

Karnataka elections 2023 BY Vijayendra has stated that after his father's decision, there is no question of him contesting from Varuna constituency. Yediyurappa and BY Vijayendra Senior BJP leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday ruled out the possibility of his son BY Vijayendra contesting against Congress leader Siddaramaiah in Varuna constituency. Talking to reporters, Yediyurappa said that the high command had proposed his son contest in the Varuna constituency. I have told them not to go forward in this regard. I will also convince the high command, he said.There is no question of Vijayendra contesting from Varuna constituency. Since I am retiring from electoral politics and not contesting from Shikaripura constituency, he will have to contest from there. We will put up a strong candidate in Varuna constituency, he added. Earlier in the week, Yediyurappa had raised eyebrows by refusing to rule out the possibility of Vijayendra contesting against Siddaramaiah in Varuna. Vijayendra previously wanted to contest from Varuna in the 2018 Assembly elections against Siddaramaiah's son Yathindra. He was denied a ticket by the BJP high command at the time. But in a clarification issued on Friday, Yediyurappa said, The party workers of Varuna are pressurizing for his contest, but he will not leave Shikaripura constituency. He will have to contest from there and it is my decision. Vijayendra has stated that after his father's decision, there is no question of him contesting from Varuna constituency. But, the constituency will have a special place in his heart. Sources close to Yediyurappa said that the Lingayat strongman is concerned about Vijayendra's political career. The decision to contest from Shikaripura is considered a safer choice than contesting against Siddaramaiah in Varuna. Siddaramaiah had stated that it is going to be his last contest and he will retire from politics following the upcoming Assembly elections.
